Through personal experiences and self-reflection, the author discovers valuable insights about life and the interconnectedness of different aspects. The book challenges the idea that answers are essential, suggesting that the questions we ask are more significant. Two unanswerable questions - how to carry something and how to set it down - trigger profound contemplation. Ultimately, the author suggests creating a list of resilience tips based on psychology.
